It is mandatory that MDS project special templates zones are stored in a site named /MDS/SPECIALS.

Three zones are required to store the project special structure templates.

  • Name them as follows to enable the MDS application to recognize the appropriate discipline templates:

    • /MDS/SPECIALS/PIPE, the PIPING template zone.

    • /MDS/SPECIALS/HVAC, the HVAC template zone.

    • /MDS/SPECIALS/TRAY, the Cable Tray template zone.

      In the MDS Design application, if a discipline zone exists, for example, /MDS/SPECIALS/PIPE, the STRU elements are displayed in the Select Project Special form. Otherwise the user is informed that the zone /MDS/SPECIALS/PIPE does not exist, and the Copy Project Special operation is aborted. If the zone exists but there are no STRU elements, an empty list is displayed in the form.
